Robert Jenrick’s false “two-tier justice” narrative

75% Informative
Conservative Party appears to be indulging in selective amnesia when declaring its shock and horror at these reforms.
Labour government is following the herd: Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood has written to the Sentencing Council to “register [her] displeasure” England and Wales have a rate of incarceration that is twice as high as Germany and three times that of Italy and Spain .
Sentencing Council’s guidelines are now under threat from all sides.
If Jenrick succeeds in corralling the government to change the law, the real victim will be the British people.
The goal appears to be to exploit a social cleavage along racial lines.
